Astana Arena (formerly referred to as Kazhimukan Munaitpasov Stadium or simply Kazhimukan) is the new national stadium for Kazakhstan. It is a multi functional, fully enclosed, fully serviced closing roof stadium designed in Turkey by Tabanlioglu Architects with HOK Sport and Buro Happold.

It was opened with the Lokomotiv Astana match against Kazakhstan national under-21 football team on 3 July 2009. The new arena will also host both the opening and the closing ceremonies of the 7th Asian Winter Games.

The 30,000 stadium was conceived as a large amphitheater with a distinctive and instantly recognizable form when viewed from a distance and from close proximity. Essentially a two·tiered structure, the lower terrace, accommodating 16,000 seats, encircles the playing area while the upper stand on the east and west sides seats a further 14,000 spectators. There is effective separation of VIPs, spectators and players to ensure smooth access. All spectators are seated and have a clear sight line with an unobstructed view of the field of play. The playing surface is covered in high quality grass surface specified to meet FIFA and UEFA criteria. The grass can be covered for other events.
